Vermont Home Gardener:  mid-July Gardens
Heat & humidity are great for our gardens but can also trigger the appearance of numerous pests and diseases.  Along with the great growth we're seeing and early harvests of greens, peas, broccoli, & summer squashes it's time to keep a keen eye to detect and control any problems before they become serious issues.  Healthy, well-watered plants can tolerate most pests and diseases, but plants may need our help when conditions in mid-summer are ideal for unwelcome insects or plant disease organisms.  Let's look at what's happening now in the garden and some near future issues that we can prevent.
